BREAKING NEWS: South Africa Takes a Major Step Forward in Agricultural Development!

Minister of Agriculture, John Steenhuisen, has approved the inclusion of indigenous crops and medicinal plants in the list of declared agricultural products, unlocking the economic potential of a long-marginalised sector valued at an estimated R12 billion a year!

This move is expected to support rural livelihoods, enhance food and nutrition security, and promote sustainable agriculture. Indigenous crops are well-suited to local conditions, require fewer inputs, and can diversify diets and income streams for smallholder farmers.

But that's not all! The government is also working to develop the h**p industry, with plans to finalize the National Cannabis Master Plan and make funding more accessible to support h**p farmers and entrepreneurs.

These initiatives aim to boost economic growth, create jobs, and improve food security in South Africa. Let's work together to make our agricultural sector thrive!

Dr Frikkie Maré, CEO of the National RPO / Nasionale RPO, confirmed that very few formal statistics existed for goat meat in South Africa, with most trade consisting of live animals sold for ritual or household slaughter.

He added that statistics from formal channels had shown an increasing trend over the past three years. Figures supplied to the RPO by industry body Agri Levy Services indicated that 11 578 goats were slaughtered at commercial abattoirs during the 2023/24 period, compared with 1 144 during 2022/23.

A retired policeman, Mr Scott, from Heidelberg, started the vegetable garden on his pavement after his cauliflower was stolen.

He realised that there were people that are hungry in his community, so he decided to cultivate an even bigger garden on his pavement in order to feed more people.

“It makes my heart happy when I see people eating my vegetables”.

“That is why I planted this, because the people are hungry, they need this”

Scott decided to plant beans, tomatoes, eggplants and beetroot for the local community to help themselves to free produce. He hoped that this garden would change how many hungry people there are in his town.

The hope is that this selfless and generous act will inspire more people around South Africa to become proactive in the fight to prevent hunger.
